Hello All!

Hi I'm Jeff, 39, IT Manager at a small software company looking to get into real estate investing. I've always had the fire in me to own and invest in real estate but am finally going to take steps to take some action.

Currently, I'm gathering information(mostly online, and BP is a great resource, I read ALL the blogs) and once I get a few contacts together I hope to do my first deal in a couple months.

My focus initially will be rehabbing and flipping to build some capital, then I hope to build a rental portfolio.

I'm looking for Wholesalers, General Contractors, Inspectors and RE Agents local to my area to work with.

Thanks!

Jeff

Hi Jeff, and welcome to BP! I'm a 'fix and hold' investor from the Bay Area in CA, and loving it! But you'll find a variety of every type of investor on the site, and everyone is amazingly helpful. Some pointers for you: The "Learn" link across the top navigation bar has lots of great info, and so do BP members! You can click on the 'vote' button if you like someone's post or is helpful, and there are 'awards' to earn on your profile. And you can tag people by typing @ before you type their name, then clicking their name at the bottom of the message box. Welcome to the site, and good luck in everything!
